Business Formation Services for Rental Property Owners and Landlords in Oswego, Illinois

The economy is near a recession, and landlords are likely to experience lawsuits and tenant issues such as non-payment of rent. Wise landlords should strongly consider setting up limited liability companies (LLCs) and developing asset protection plans to protect their personal assets from liability claims of renters and creditors.

During the 2008 recession, many successful landlords lost their rental properties because of lawsuits and improper asset protection. The founder of Landlord Evictions, LLC and Landlord Evictions, LLC gained significant experience representing property owners and landlords during this time. The benefit of an LLC is the protection of one's personal assets against liability claims.

Landlords should strongly consider setting up one LLC per rental property (or some variation of this strategy). An LLC is a mixture between a corporation and a partnership. For tax purposes, an LLC is disregarded, which means that a business owner will file taxes in their individual name (or their family's name).

Real Estate Legacy Law is an area of practice designed by Landlord Evictions, LLC, and it covers the gap in the law between real estate and estate planning lawyers.

Proper Estate Planning for Property Owners in Oswego, Boulder Hill, and Kendall County

Estate planning is an absolute must for rental property owners. Avoiding probate court is essential, and real estate properties often result in lengthy and costly probate court cases. Court cases can cost thousands of dollars in legal fees, and they may produce headaches that can be avoided with proper planning.

A Living Trust is an estate planning tool like a Will that explains how a person wants to distribute their properties and other assets upon their death or incapacity. Unlike a Will, a Living Trust (otherwise known as a "Revocable Living Trust") does not go through probate court if it is properly structured. The benefit of a Living Trust is the avoidance of court procedures and the minimization of taxes and attorney's fees.

Rental property owners also should consider setting up Land Trusts and/or LLCs to shelter their property. Generally, each property should have its own LLC. The purpose of a land trust is to keep liens and judgments from affecting the owner's personal property. The LLC and the land trust work together, because the LLC will be the beneficial owner of a rental property. This arrangement maximizes asset protection and minimizes liability concerns.
